Game Day Activities

Through Tennessee football's Vol for Life program, UT will welcome more than 200 former football players, dating back to the 1951 National Championship, to campus. The players will participate in the Vol Walk and follow current players in running through the "T" onto the field.

The UT Athletics Department and the Tennessee Fund office also will host the annual "Tennessee Fund Donor Appreciation Day" for invited guests prior to the game. Donor Appreciation Day runs from 9 to 11 a.m. at Thompson-Boling Arena and includes a barbecue lunch, live music, student-athlete appearances, guest speakers and interactive games.

The traditional Vol Walk will start at 9:45 a.m. on Volunteer Boulevard near Circle Park, as the members of the football team proceed down Volunteer Boulevard and then continue down Peyton Manning Pass to the stadium.

The Pride of the Southland Marching Band will begin marching at 10:20 a.m. from their new home at the Natalie L. Haslam Music Center on Volunteer Boulevard and will then follow the same path as the Vol Walk.
